Fingerprint: The Flipper Game, giant fair-haired pinup woman in red with pale ribbon sash standing beneath huge cream-white title lettering, carousel roof and hatted figures filling space behind title, rows of red-on-black mechanical score reels occupying entire lower third, photographed through glass with milky glare and reflections
A giant fair-haired pinup woman in red with a pale ribbon sash, standing centre-front beneath the huge cream-white title lettering. The whole scene is a funfair: a green-topped carousel roof and small hatted figures fill the space behind the title. Rows of red-on-black mechanical score reels occupy the entire lower third, split by a central vertical ornament. Seen through glass, with strong milky glare streaking across the top-left and green-and-yellow reflections over the lower right.

Photographed backglass seen through glass in a light honey-coloured wooden surround, so heavy glare and reflections wash over the art. Across the upper third runs a huge blocky serif title in cream-white with black inline shading, a small THE above the first word and GAME at the right, reading THE FLIPPER GAME. Below the title a fair-skinned young woman dominates the centre: long wavy bright red hair, red top, a pale ribbon or sash curving across her chest, painted in loose airbrushed style. Behind and beside her are crowded painted vignettes of a funfair - a green-topped carousel or stall roof upper left, small figures in hats, and dark maroon decorative scrollwork. The lower half is filled with rows of rectangular score reels in black frames with red-on-black digits, split left and right of a central vertical ornament, with a green scrolling wave motif at the very bottom. Dominant colours are red, cream-white, dark maroon and green.
